Reply to comment by Kvltadelic in New child tax credit offers financial support to families with young children by newnemo
We need people to work and provide servies to the community. We need families to continue providing a tax base to continue as a community. Communities are made up of people and we get more people by reproducing, we need to incentivize this.
It is also a tax break from previous liabilities the family already had, they aren't getting money from the State just keeping more of what they already earned, not the State.

Don’t threaten me with a good time, let’s march hand in hand into extinction!
I was mostly joking but I seriously think it’s ridiculous that people get massive tax breaks for reproducing. I’m paying into a system without creating more dependents to pull money out via schools and healthcare.
There should be a tax break for mitigating overpopulation and not forcing anyone to look at dumb pictures of my offspring.

They can, it just adds an extra layer of bullshit to the process.

Like it or not, guns are only constitutionally protected because of an amendment, so there’s nothing stopping another amendment from enshrining the right to have cannabis or the right to healthcare.

Its called State law Rama, you should know especially if you want to represent us in the State government. As a legal gun owner in Vermont, if I travel across State lines with my gun doesn't mean the laws are the same.
Its not really that complicated, though I realize your argument isn't in good faith.

Humans have been having babies and raising families before the advent of the written and spoken word. There are people that lived in huts made of sod that bore children.
The main issue here is that this is a tax credit meaning it's absolving the parents of an already owed tax liability. Depending on your feelings of the State and government, taxes I'm Vermo t are already too high for their return.

Do their job? It is your responsibility to bring proof of taxes paid to the DMV. You brought "I paid some fee, and the internet says it's the same thing." Are you really surprised that the clerk didn't accept that?

Believe it or not reproduction is a basic fundamental biological process that all lifeforms engage in or they go extinct.

There is a tax amending process.

Well private sales are restricted for both....you can't sell a gun via private sale anymore in VT (legally) without going through an FFL to do a transfer including background check. You also can't (legally) sell weed privately.

Excellent point and you are correct, it does not appear to be illegal. I did the common but flawed online thing of repeating something I had heard as if it was established fact. Shame on me!
Looking at NH Dept. of Agriculture rules I can find nothing that says it is illegal to move, only that it is a really bad idea.

No, fuck that. Cops use their union to literally get away with murder while keeping their jobs and pensions.
And fuck you for trying to compare that to slavery and racism. There's no such thing as a blue life - you can take the shirt off. Black people can't take their skin color off, and cops are shooting them because of it and using unions to get away with it.
Wow. The lion the witch and the audacity of this bitch to try to compare indoor and outdoor slaves to being against how police unions sanction murder.

Schultz is appearing before Bernie's committee today to answer for just that.

Having lived in both cities, I would agree. Although I'm happier in Burlington than I was in South Burlington. Sometimes I miss being able to walk to my gym though.

When I was 15 my dad brought me to the kmart parking lot to sell a random dude from a local hunting forum a gun.
Granted I've also bought weed in the kmart parking lot.....

He literally says "you make your bed, you sleep in it" in the article and acknowledges that it was a dumb publicity stunt. So I think he gets it.

It may have changed or been different since we both went but there was a period where they stood us in front of a big map that showed all the factory locations and distribution centers. Those machines were pretty cool, the best part was the free ice cream. Hahaha.

My point is you guys are irrational. Commercial development is ugly so you don't want that, you hate tourists and don't want people to rent out spaces to them to make money, and you don't want remote workers living here(and paying tax). Yet you also complain there are no good jobs to keep young people in the state and that housing is too expensive. You just want everything to stay the same but magical fairy dust to create good paying jobs and affordable housing, which is not going to happen

Like it or not their is no constitutional right to have cannabis.
For at least 12 years now the Supreme Court’s decision says citizens have the right to a fire arm for self defense. While can say I am not a fan of that ruling, I also know any attempts at “gun control” will be limited to that ruling.

> better than what the average person could make at home.
lies. at home you can choose your own beans, master the way of frothing your milk. You can make a much better product at home with even a cheap machine. Do not discount the DIY way. It's like bread, you can buy it in a store, or make it at home, guess which one tastes better and gives you more control over what goes in it..?
